This is the 2011 Nissan Rogue, refreshed and repackaged with a tiny bit more fuel economy. It will be unveiled officially tomorrow at the International Z Car Convention in Nashville, Tennessee. Why there? Nissan believes the Rogue is just like the original 240Z “Z-car” (which has since evolved into the 370Z) in that it offers great performance, stylish looks, and good affordability. We say anyone who really wants a Z-car successor should, um, buy a 370Z—it’s a rear-wheel-drive sports car, after all, whereas the Rogue is a small, front-wheel-drive-based crossover.

Tenuous connection to the past aside, the Rogue is henceforth available in S, SV, and S Krom trims. The old SL trim has been renamed SV, although, confusingly, there is now an SL equipment package offered for the SV trim. You can no longer buy a Rogue SL, but you could pick up a 2011 Rogue SV SL. So there.

The Rogue’s face lift encompasses a new front fascia with highly stylized fog-light cut-outs, a redesigned chrome grille, the addition of chrome trim on the lower door edges, a revised rear spoiler, and a new chrome bar above the rear license-plate holder. The number of possible paint colors doubles from four to eight. Inside, a redesigned instrument panel and center stack join new seat upholstery and ambient lighting. We think the exterior looks much more upscale, like a mini-Murano, although the interior updates aren’t as drastic.
